Dalvin Cook Named a Top-10 Running Back Heading into 2023

Throughout the offseason, one of the biggest debates in Vikings fandom has regarded what the team should do with running back Dalvin Cook. Some have argued Minnesota should trade the veteran RB while others want to keep him around for at least one more go in 2023.

Those in favor of keeping Cook around will be happy to see that Trevor Sikkema of Pro Football Focus recently released his list of the top-32 running backs in the NFL, and Cook was actually named a top-10 running back. Here is a look at the full top-10:

  1. Nick Chubb
  2. Derrick Henry
  3. Christian McCaffrey
  4. Josh Jacobs
  5. Jonathon Taylor
  6. Saquon Barkley
  7. Aaron Jones
  8. Tony Pollard
  9. Austin Ekeler
  10. Dalvin Cook
